    PULLMAN CAR SERVICES The Quality of Service is Remembered Long after the Price is Forgotten SPECIAL EDITION No.11 Pullman Car Services-Archive - Special Edition No.11 Stobart Pullman - Issue 1 - November 2017 Page 1 of 19 The Stobart Pullman was a rail tour operator in the United Kingdom, operating Pullman type charter trains, as Stobart Rail Tours. The company was a subsidiary of Eddie Stobart Ltd. and was operated by Stobart’s rail partner, Direct Rail Services (DRS). The Stobart Pullman had its origins in the August 2007 reverse takeover of Eddie Stobart Group by Westbury, which brought the Westbury rail company Victa Westlink Rail into the Stobart Group. Victa Westlink had the rail tour company Hertfordshire Rail Tours as a subsidiary. This tour company was rationalised and relaunched as the Stobart Pullman on February 12th, 2008, although using rolling stock and traction provided by DRS. The Pullman was launched with a lunchtime service for 200 people, the Wessex Circular, departing from London Victoria, travelling to Fareham, and returning to London at Euston. This service was run as a top and tailed train, powered by locomotives 47802 Pride of Cumbria and 47712 Pride of Carlisle in DRS compass livery, and a Stobart Pullman headboard. ©Brad Joyce.
